1 down 1 to go
Just cleaning up some stock ls6 243's i picked up. They will be going on with my Torquer v.3 in a few months. I just used carb cleaner and some elbow grease.

As for porting and valve job. Most people are dynoing roughly 15-20hp more over stock and i just can't justify spending $650+ dollars on a cnc port job for 15-20hp when i could put the money else where (clutch,tune,towards 9",etc...)
Thanks,
Matt

I found that gasket remover from Permatex worked great for cleaning mine and does not smell nearly as bad. That Carb cleaner is nasty and dries out your the skin on the 'ol fingertips.

i do not think it is a waste of time. polishing your exhaust ports prevents from **** building up in there witch means better flow. and polishing the combustion chamber will prevent knock to a point. and you do not have to pay somebody to do it for you.it's not that hard as long as you have the right tools.
